Just wondering.....is the cheat meal on this diet once every two weeks, or once every week?
once a week
Thanks. The only reason I ask, is that some people have been talking about their cheat meal after 2 weeks. I assume that this is just for when you first start out the diet.Quote:

Not sure what Dave thinks is different about "his" diet. Bodybuilders have been doing this for a long time.
Why are you always ragging on Dave? What's your issue?Quote:

You sure like to hate. Do yuou have anything constructive to offer or do you just like pissing in other people's pond?
0.5lb a day.Quote:

until anyone is a top nutritionist to the pros, and probably makes 7 figures a year, you just sound like a complete idiot trying to rag on the guy (dave p)
what foods are OK for the cheat meal, and which are not?
Anything goes.
"anything goes" yes.....but Palumbo makes it very clear not to go overboard on the meal. Just enough to satisfy you
and of course..same day/time...try to avoid trans fats...
i gotta say, i have no heartburn on this diet....any other diet i have heartburn... and you khow what... i save about $150/month vs HERNONS diets
FYI

What would a green salad be? Just lettuce/spinach? Or can you have green pepper, broccoli or cucumber?Quote:

What a shitty salad. I might give this diet a go though.
This is a great diet because of it's simplicity. There are other keto diets out there, and they all work pretty decent, but Dave really put out a great guideline that is super-easy to follow.
still depends on the person for this diet.
i tried it myself and yes it works, but i have yet to find a woman use this diet and get the same results or anywhere close to what a man gets.
The Salad that dave suggests for his clients doesnt taste all that bad....Mix romaine w/spinach add diced cucumber and 1 tbsp extra v olive oil and 1 tbsp balsm vinegar
sounds tasty to me.Quote:

I agree with you PHYSIQUE. It always depends on the person. For me personallly, keto diets are the only way for me to get seriously cut. I just look at a piece of bread and I get fat..lol.Quote:

I function so much better on high protein low carb it is silly. My wife on the other hand is the opposite. Northern European stock versus Mediteranean stock.
Carbs of themselves are non-essential to the human diet despite tasting really good.
Proteins and Fats however are essential to the human diet.
The question as to what is the optimal macro nutrient mix of these things to maximize the creation of muscle, gain the most muscle with little fat gain or losing fat and maintaining muscle is a far less obvious question.
For me, when I have a strength focus, limiting carb calories in general seems to be a preferable strategy in any direction.
My women clients do fantastic on this diet...shredded.Quote:

I respect Dave, I just don't think he does much different than other guys.......BUT I would be extremely privileged to have someone like that train me......for the record.
i used keto sticks for my first show,i was in ketosis after 12 hours,after intense workout with cardio went home checked with keto sticks and was in ketosis that fast.this was during my final week of prep too, during carb depletion phase so was pretty low anyways.of all the diets ive used.low carb high protein is the way to go for me
i used daves diet befor i heard of him,i just always used carbs as a way to adjust my bf%.bulking more carbs, cutting less carbs.but i am gonna try his diet to a t next time,see how it goesQuote:

No the keto diet was around long before Dan ever came into the picture. Frank Zane used a keto diet for his Olympia wins in the 70's.Quote:

Thus you can show very little discolouration on a keto stick but still be in ketosis.
Daves diet is Daves diet...its a keto diet with his own personal alterations...all keto diets are not the same.

Do you think a glucometer would be the only option for gauging ketosis accurately?Quote:

Toney Freeman follows a very simmilar type of diet... he stays in great condition year round and I believe this is what has helped keep his waist as tight as it is... I have tried tons of different diets and I believe this works really well for most people... This is my interpretation of the Palumbo diet :) This is based on someone with 175lbs of lean body mass...
